Chapter 1266: Forcing the Palace


Here's another chapter.,The fifth one is sent.,Ask for a monthly pass.。

Hankyung.

Li Shimin finally found the feeling he had not felt for a long time.

After eating the elixir of immortality, he felt that he was fluttering like a cloud, and even for a whole day, he was refreshed, deaf and clear.

He even found that his body, which was originally exhausted, had recently become fierce.

When the martial artist kneaded his shoulders for him, the faint fragrance emanating from his body even made his body hot and unable to control himself.

He turned around and picked up Wu, stretched out his hand to sweep away the music on the imperial case, and pounced directly.

Seven braces.

The Wu clan had already passed out several degrees. refreshing The emperor has never been so cool, not even so brave, he feels that he can now win the lion and tiger, the ten women of the night emperor.

Originally, Li Shimin was a little skeptical about this elixir, but now, he really believes it.

Rona is a true monk.

He immediately ordered to build a luxurious temple for the monks, just outside the city of Hanjing, planning to cover an area of 1,800 acres, and to use gold to shape Buddha statues and build an eighteen-story pagoda.

In short, this monk must not be wronged, and he must be given the best alchemy environment.

As for the various magical medicinal materials prescribed by this monk, Li Shimin didn't say a word, and ordered the six doors to be found from all over the world.

Under the door of the book.

Fang Xuanling and the eldest grandson Wuji, Yu Wenshi and Qu Tongtu presided over the joint meeting of the three academies.

"Zhang Chao has captured the entire territory of Jiangnan Province and half of Jiangxi Province."

Fang Xuanling, who is over half a hundred years old, has aged a lot during this time, and his beard is gray.

Even his eyes were already a little cloudy, and his gaze swept over everyone, "The situation in the north is not good.

General Wei Chi attacked Lulongse, but so far there has been no progress.

However, General Li Ji attacked Jiuzhi Mountain, which has been several months, and it is still difficult to break through, and he launched seven or eight offensives before and after, but as a result, he lost tens of thousands of horses and horses, and he still could not advance an inch. ” "And Hexi."

Fang Xuanling sighed.

"Following the loss of Lanliang and Liangzhou, Hexi is now basically taken by Cheng Yanjin and Su Dingfang.

Qinghai Road and Longyou Road were also mostly lost.

They united with the Subi and Tuyuhun armies, and now the offensive is extremely fierce, and the situation in the northwest is dangerous.

Their offensive is not weaker than Zhang Chao in the slightest, and now that it can no longer be contained, then within March, the entire four provinces of Hexi, Longyou, Qinghai, and the Western Regions will fall into the hands of the rebels, and the Xihailing, Hezhongling, and Xindu Lings of the imperial court will also be isolated. ” The situation is very unoptimistic.

"In the next step, the rebels in the northwest may turn to attack the Central Plains.

Whether it is attacking Chang'an in the middle of the storm, or directly sending troops from Longyou into Hanzhong, and attacking Hanjing along the Han River, this is extremely dangerous. ” "Zhang Chao has gathered a heavy army in Runzhou, with an army of 120,000 on land and water.

The next step is Yangzhou.

And we only have 30,000 horses in Yangzhou."

The Zaifu were silent.

No one could understand how the situation had come to such a point.

The 800,000 army of the imperial court It seems that the rebels are blooming on all sides, and it seems that the soldiers of the court have become on paper.

There are at least 200,000 officers and soldiers of the imperial court who have attached themselves to the rebel armies from all walks of life.

And now the rebels from all walks of life add up to an army of no less than 300,000.

One trades off the other.

The imperial court no longer has such a big advantage in terms of military strength. 800,000 against 50,000, they didn't win.

Now 600,000 against 300,000, it's harder to win.

The eldest grandson Wuji took over the conversation.

"Recently, in the Jianghanhuai River Basin, heavy rain has continued.

It has been raining for almost a month, and the Yangtze River, Han River, Huai River, and major tributaries, as well as the Xiang River and the Gan River are also full of water.

At present, the disaster situation reported in various localities has become more and more serious.

Many levees were breached, many places were inundated, and hundreds of counties were affected. ” Eldest Sun Wuji sighed, "And this heavy rain is still falling, and there is no intention of stopping at all."

The early rice harvest in the Yangtze River basin has basically been wiped out this year.

Even if there is no flooded rice field, the rice cannot be harvested, and there is no land to dry when it is harvested, so it can only be watched as it sprouts and moldy. ” The war is still not over there, and natural disasters are happening again.

This flood can even be called a once-in-a-century disaster.

It is almost comparable to the great drought and locust plague in the north at the beginning of Zhenguan.

Fertile fields are flooded, crops are flooded, villages and towns are flooded.

"So far, at least 100,000 people have drowned, and countless more property has been lost."

The prime ministers sighed.

The eldest grandson Wuji said solemnly, "I am the Zhongshu Order, the head of the three courts, and there have been such a big military disaster and natural disasters this year, which is all my dereliction of duty, and I ask for my resignation." ” Fang Xuanling said, "I am a servant, and I should also take the blame and resign." ” The Acting Privy Councillor Qu Tutong slapped the table angrily.

"When is it, at this time, what is the use of resigning at this time, what is the benefit of the situation, you are picking on a stack, and there is still a little bit of responsibility, you resigned at this time and went home, who will clean up this mess" Fang Xuanling was exhausted.

"I'll stay on duty, and when the situation improves, I'll leave."

The eldest grandson Wuji also expressed his willingness to stay, clean up the mess and leave.

But when everyone sat down again, they found that this mess was really difficult to clean up.

Originally, the fire of this rebellion was already burning bigger and bigger, and the situation was out of control.

At the same time, the economic crisis of the Central Plains, the imperial court was already overwhelmed, and the people's hearts were lost, and now it has encountered a great flood in the south that occurs once in a century.

This really added fuel to the fire, and the roof leak happened to rain overnight.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the current situation requires everyone to work together.

If there is any good way, please feel free to say. ” Du Yan, the imperial historian, said, "At the moment, the top priority is that I think we should still save people's hearts."

Recently, the situation in Hanjing has been too chaotic, with a run on money, a depreciation of paper money, an economic depression, and then student riots.

The court can't be blindly tough, and the tougher the people, the more the people will rebound.

A suggestion was made that Wei Zheng, Kong Yingda, Lu Deming, and other detained officials should be released immediately, and that the detained students should be released immediately. ” "If you want me to say, Your Majesty should issue an edict for the next crime, and then give amnesty to the world and empty the prison."

Fang Xuanling suddenly interjected.

It is not surprising that this old man said this.

"If you want to do it, do it simply, otherwise, how to save people's hearts and minds in the current situation, and how to fight, I think that we can't fight anymore.

If we fight again, the court will be finished, even if we can win in the end, what a big price to pay" "For now, we should negotiate peace with the crown prince, and the two sides should cease fighting, make every effort to provide disaster relief, and restore the economy."

The eldest grandson Wuji did not speak.

Of course, Lao Xiangguo's words are reasonable, Datang can no longer withstand this battle to quell the chaos.

If you really fight, you will inevitably collapse.

It is easy to say and talks Let the emperor negotiate peace with the crown prince, how is this possible "There must be peace talks, and even if Your Majesty does not want to, you must persuade him to agree.

We can't fight now, and if we do, we may not be able to win.

Look at Zhang Chao's march, everywhere they go, it's not that no one can stop it, but no one is willing to resist, the local businessmen and heroes, and even the scholars and landlords, are all welcomed one after another, what is this a mockery of us" The eldest grandson Wuji shook his head.

"Your Majesty won't talk about it."

Du Yan said, "We can not talk about peace talks, but only talk about a temporary truce, and first rush to rescue the victims."

If the crown prince and Zhang Chao do not agree to the truce and disaster relief, then they will lose a city first, and then we can say that they do not care about the life and death of the people, just to seize power and usurp the throne.

If they agree, then we can pull out our hands for the time being and clean up the mess first. ” "We can even use this disaster relief truce to step up the deployment of troops, readjust deployment, and prepare for war.

Zhang Chao can't be allowed to attack the city and plunder the land again, as if they are in a no-man's land.

Jiangnan Province can be lost, Fujian and Zhejiang can be lost, but Jiangxi and Huainan must be defended, and we must step up the deployment of troops and horses to defend. ” "Here Hebei, Hedong, Shaanxi, and Hetao must not be lost, we can lose Hexi and the Western Regions, but we must recapture Longyou."

Du Yan has always been known for being scheming, and he does see the situation more clearly at this time.

Blindly thinking about the destruction of the rebels in a war is no longer realistic.

The rebels have formed four routes.

The prince and Zhang Chao in the southeast occupied the six provinces of Jiangnan, Zhejiang, Fujian, Guangdong, Guangxi, Guangnan and Funan.

Qin Qiong and Zhang Tiegun in the northeast also occupied Yingzhou and Lulongsai.

Luo Shixin, Niu Jinda, and Shan Xiongxin in the north occupied Zhangjiakou and Datong.

There are also Cheng Yanjin and Su Dingfang in Hexi, who united Subi and Tuyuhun, and now occupy most of Hexi, Qinghai and Longyou.

Among the four routes, Zhang Chao in the southeast and Cheng Yanjin in the northwest are the strongest, one east and one west, which has become a momentum, and it is very difficult to quickly eradicate it.

For now, the court might as well admit the situation.

Hexi Qinghai will not care about it first, first recapture Longyou, and hold Longyou and Shaanxi, so as to block the important Guanzhong Plain and Jianghan Plain and the important land of Hanjing.

The same goes for the southeast.

Jiangnan Province and Zhejiang Province were taken away, and they didn't care about it for now, they had to hold Huainan Road and Jiangxi Province first, at least they had to control the situation, and they couldn't let the rebels attack the city and plunder the land all the way.

Stabilize first, and then talk about counterattack.

"Ladies and gentlemen, if we only regard Zhang Chao as an ordinary rebellion, then it may not be long before his battle flag will appear outside the city of Hanjing.

Don't forget, the last time Zhang Chao fought all the way from southern Liaoning to Hanjing, it only took a few months. ” Last time, Zhang Chao was King Qin, and this time he is the protector of the Dharma.

Who dares to say that Zhang Chao doesn't have the ability to hit Hanjing When Zhang Chao raised troops in Jiaozhou before, who would have expected that in less than half a year, Zhang Chao had already occupied the land of six provinces and one territory, and was supported by hundreds of people in the southeast "But in the end, I have to agree with Your Majesty."

Shang Shu Ling Yu Wenshi and said helplessly.

"As long as we have the same opinion, we can enter the palace together and ask Your Majesty to agree."

The eldest grandson Wuji was shocked, the old minister Guofang Xuanling is going to explode today, if he enters the palace like this, won't it become a forced palace t1706231537:
